Help Please! iCal won't close without "synchronizing modificatons"

I have iCal on an intel iMac running Tiger. I emailed my calendars from my old mac to my new mac and imported them into my new iCal. iCal won't close now, it says "Synchronizing Your Modifications" Abort and Quit is given as a choice, but it doesn't quit. What is this? HELP !!!

John,
To reinstall iCal:
1. Insert the Snow Leopard Installation disk into the computer.
2. The disk will appear on the desktop.
3. Double click on the "Optional Installs" folder.
4. Double click on the "Optional Installs.mpkg."
5. Click on (Continue) in Introduction.
6. Click on (Continue) in Software License Agreement.
7. Click on (Agree) to agree to the terms of the software license agreement.
8. Click on the disclosure arrow ▶ next to Applications.
9. Select (✓) iCal.
10. Click (Continue).
11. After iCal has been reinstalled, download and install the Mac OS X v10.6.7 Update Combo to bring iCal up to the most recent version.

    You can change the email address you use as your apple ID. this doesn't mean you have to delete the old email address as email.
    When you delete an email from your device, it is only removed from the device, it does not delete your emails or the email account.

  • Firefox won't close without using Task Manager - end process; can't start in safe mode or disable add-ons

    I've been having a memory leak/hanging problem for weeks -- FF slowly increases memory usage until it's at almost 100% and then freezes and I have to shut it down via Task Manager/end process.
    Last week I updated to FF 12, and I also added the Web Developer 1.1.9 add-on. Now every time I open Firefox it tries to go to the "Web Developer installed" page, but the page never loads. Nothing else will load either.
    I can't start in Safe Mode because of the problem with having to close it in Task Manager. I select "restart with add-ons disabled" and it just never opens. The Add-On manager page won't load, so I can't disable Web Developer to see if that's the problem.
    I've uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled, and it still goes right back to the Web Developer page when I open the freshly installed copy.
    Help, please!

    Have you already tried clearing the browser cache, opening a blank tab, and trying to open some other website ?
    * [[how to clear the cache]]
    Instead of trying to open safe mode from within the User Interface menu have you tried alternative methods such as holding the shift key when you start Firefox. (After checking for running Firefox processes or plugincontainer and killing them if found )
    * see [[safe mode]]
    * [[firefox hangs]]
    If using safemode does not help first of all try creating and using a new profile.
    * [[Basic Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile]]_8-make-a-new-profile
    If all the above fail then try a clean re-install of Firefox

  • Help please - GB won't work - Midi driver conflict with Snow Leopard

    I use Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro.  Ever since I upgraded to this version GarageBand won't work.  When I try to launch it I get 3 or 4 pop up screens saying GB has detected software midi conflicts please update your midi drivers.  If I click through these and wait for 3 or 4 minutes, GB does open but it takes ages to change anything and it shows there is no Core Audio.  It also won't 'Play' an already recorded track and there is no sound for anything.   I have several plugins Including Line 6 Podfarm, and the midi drivers for Melodyne and record through an old Tascam US122 with midi. 
    One driver for the Podfarm was automatically put in an incompatibel Software folder when I upgraded.  I put this file in Trash and updated my Podfarm drivers but it's made no difference. 
    In GB Preferences it shows the Tascam US122 as my recording/playback and my midi device, but also 'no midi device detected' even though it is connected.   There are no driver updates for this old Tascam model. 
    Everything still works perfectly in Melodyne.  How can I find out which driver(s) are involved in the conflict for GB?  I have no guarantee that even if I buy a new Tascam interface, or any other brand, that GB will work, even then. 
    Is there a way to identify which driver, or drivers, are the problem?  Surely that is not beyond what a MacBook Pro can do? 

    I should have mentioned I use GarageBand 2009.  I've read other posts all over the web where people have trouble with this Tascam US122 but with the older Leopard versions.  I had no problem with ordinary Leopard 10.5.6 - it's only since I upgraded to Snow Leopard, and it's only in GB. 
    I've tried a powered hub which has helped others, but doesn't help with my problem.
    I reallly only want to know which driver/drivers are the problem. 
    Then I can work out a solution, even if it means buying a new interface.  So long as I can't identify what the problem is, I'm not prepared to buy new equipment that might make no difference at all.
    Bad luck with your electronic drums macuserrich - it's  annoying isn't it!!!!

  • Need Major help please - mac won't get passed apple screen

    Please help I have an assignment due in midnight tonight and my mac has just crashed. When I switch it on it loads the screen with the apple icon on it and with the animated turning circle but that's it. It doesn't do anything from there. Please give any advice you can.

    No I don't have a backup at all since my external HD broke. I can go into the leopard install setup with the disc. I have tried repairing disc with disk utility which it says is successful. It then still won't work. On trying to repair disc permissions it comes up with an error 'First Aid Failed - the underlying task reported failure on exit' comes up. During repairing disk it comes up with the error Incorrect block count for the file pcscd.pub.
    Thanks I appreciate your help.

  • Help needed - Laptop won't work without adapter

    I bought my MacBook exactly one month back. Today, while i was working on my laptop away from my desk, the laptop suddenly went off. The battery was at 78% and there was no reason for it to go off. Now, ever since that happened, my computer doesn't start or even run without the wall charger. I have the latest software releases and i have tried restarting countless times. I even tried removing the battery and putting it back again.
    Any ideas as to what can I do to resolve this or what might be causing this. Any help would be appreciated.
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   1GB Ram, 2.0Ghz Intel Core Duo

    Two possibilites: 1. The battery is bad; 2. You've never calibrated the battery.

  • Help please, safari won't connect

    Hi,
    Since this morning my safari & apps unable to connect to the internet.  It's just showing the looping circle and after a while it says "safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding"  Is safari having problems?
    I'm sure it's not my internet connection because it works find with my laptop.
    I've tried to reset the wi fi and shut down my ipad but it's still not working.
    Any advice please?
    Thanks.
    San

    Have you tried to reset your device or force close Safari and see if that clears things up
    Reset
    Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. No data will be lost.
    Force close an app
    Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.

  • HELP! Windows won't close.

    I hit the "Apple O" (Open ALL) shortcut on a wrong window and now it has opened all 300 folders with music in them in the finers. It's too much for the computer, so it is stalling.
    I cannot hit the x to close any window. I cannot highlight all and close all.
    Any other ideas?
    Basically, I need to do the "control-alt-delete" like you can do on IBM, but I don't know how to do this with mac.
    Any ideas??

    Highlight one of those picture files and do a Get Info on it, (CMD+i keys), look for the Open with ^ if the little triangle is pointing to the right, click on it to expose more, what does it list as to open it with, and is that application on the Hard Drive?
